story4 positive mentions
  • Beautiful hand-drawn visuals and atmospheric design effectively create a haunting, immersive setting.
  • Innovative puzzle mechanics involving possession of objects encourage unconventional and cerebral problem-solving.
  • The game offers a rich, layered narrative that rewards close attention and deep engagement with its symbolic, fragmented storytelling.
  • The game suffers from multiple bugs, including game-breaking glitches that can cause players to get stuck and require restarting.
  • Lack of clear direction, guidance, or hint systems leads to player frustration and confusion, especially given the non-linear structure and obscure puzzle solutions.
  • Compared to its predecessor, Goetia 2 has weaker storytelling, less engaging characters, and less inspired atmosphere, making it a disappointment for fans of the original.

  • story

    19 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    21% positive mentions, 63% neutral mentions, 16% negative mentions

    The story in the game is minimal, abstract, and cryptic, relying heavily on environmental clues and symbolism, which can be engaging for players who appreciate deep exploration but frustrating or confusing for others. Compared to the first game, many find the narrative less compelling, with weaker character development and a slower start, though some still appreciate its eerie atmosphere and satisfying conclusion. Overall, the story is seen as layered yet demanding, often overshadowed by challenging puzzles and unconventional storytelling methods.

    • “From the outset, the game establishes a somber, unsettling tone that prioritizes mystery and discovery over straightforward storytelling.”
    • “Rather than guiding players with clear exposition, Goetia 2 relies on environmental clues, cryptic conversations, and scattered written texts to convey its story.”
    • “Players willing to engage deeply with the world’s symbolism and fragmented storytelling will find a layered narrative beneath the surface, while others may find the lack of clarity disorienting.”
    • “Even the story is a boring mess and never made me care in the slightest about the two characters I supposedly want to save from their situation.”
    • “Immediately upon loading, the storyline was vague and almost non-existent, and by the city center, I stumbled upon a game-ending glitch that forced me to quit and restart the game in its entirety.”
    • “I didn't like the characters, both in visual design and writing, so I never felt invested in the story.”

  • gameplay

    11 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    27% positive mentions, 46% neutral mentions, 27% negative mentions

    The gameplay is characterized by unconventional mechanics, such as the absence of a traditional inventory, which reinforce the game's eerie atmosphere and demand complex, multi-location puzzle-solving. While the sequel retains many appealing elements from the first game, including its art, sound design, and helpful features like a map and codex, some players find the puzzles illogical and frustrating, especially towards the end, with occasional bugs affecting the overall experience.

    • “One of the game’s defining mechanics is the complete absence of a traditional inventory system.”
    • “This possession mechanic reinforces the protagonist’s ghostly nature and encourages unconventional problem-solving, but it also raises the difficulty, as solutions are rarely obvious and often span multiple locations.”
    • “Its unconventional mechanics, abstract storytelling, and demanding puzzles set it apart from more traditional point-and-click games.”
    • “Especially the last hour or so of gameplay I was just ready for it to be over and I was trying to get to the ending ASAP.”
    • “I think the first game was just better in every way: better story, better characters, better direction, better gameplay flow.”
    • “But I kept playing for the mechanics and it also fell short in that aspect - the logic went out of the window, some puzzles are just ridiculous.”

  • atmosphere

    8 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    50% positive mentions, 50% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    Goetia 2 is praised for its haunting and cerebral atmosphere, characterized by eerie stillness and surreal architecture that maintain tension without relying on typical horror elements. While some users find the atmosphere less inspired and mysterious than the first game, others appreciate its beautiful, sinister moments and unique, intellectually engaging ambiance. Overall, the game prioritizes atmosphere and originality, offering a thoughtful and immersive experience.

    • “The eerie stillness of the world, combined with its surreal architecture, creates a haunting atmosphere that sustains tension even in the absence of traditional horror elements.”
    • “Beautiful sceneries and sinister moments, loved the atmosphere.”
    • “Goetia 2 is a point-and-click adventure that leans heavily into atmosphere, abstraction, and cerebral puzzle design.”

  • music

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    67% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 33% negative mentions

    The music is characterized by an eerie, atmospheric soundtrack that complements the understated sound design focused on ambient effects rather than prominence. It maintains the haunting mood established in the first game, enhancing immersion without overshadowing gameplay.

    • “The very cool, eerie soundtrack and sound design contribute strongly to the game's atmosphere.”
    • “The music puzzle, though challenging, is a notable part of the game's sound experience.”
    • “Sound design is understated, favoring ambient effects over musical prominence.”

  • emotional

    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The emotional aspect is subtle and conveyed mainly through visual and narrative elements rather than audio, creating an unsettling atmosphere. However, some users found it difficult to form strong emotional attachments to the characters compared to previous installments.

    • “This restraint complements the unsettling atmosphere, though it also means that emotional highs and lows are conveyed more through visual and narrative cues than through audio.”
    • “But I couldn't get emotionally attached to these characters, like I had been to the previous characters.”

  • graphics

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The graphics feature detailed hand-drawn visuals that vividly depict libraries, courtyards, archives, and decaying structures, emphasizing themes of decay, occult symbolism, and a pervasive sense of isolation.

    • “Libraries, courtyards, archives, and decaying structures are rendered with detailed hand-drawn visuals that emphasize decay, occult symbolism, and an oppressive sense of isolation.”

  • optimization

    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative
    100% positive mentions, 0% neutral mentions, 0% negative mentions

    The game features appealing visuals and runs smoothly, indicating good optimization overall.

    • “On the surface this game looks very nice, it's pretty and runs smoothly.”
